AN ACT OF KINDNESS /// BASTILLE
By Hanna M | instagram @wildworldpilots
**no capo**
Note: there are actually no chords playing in the outro but I put chords there to make it easier to play.
There is also a C note played in some transitions in the intro and in Verse 1,
you can hear it by listening to the song. Hope you enjoy!
